13 Mar 2024 --- A new European study reveals that drinking 100% fruit juice has a negligible impact on daily calories but accounts for up to a quarter of children’s vitamin C intake and is an important source of other vital nutrients. Some policymakers and researchers warn that regularly consuming fruit juices could lead to weight gain due to the natural sugar content. But, according to the study of European countries, fruit juices only contribute up to 14% of free sugar in people’s daily diets, compared with up to 92% from products containing added sugar, such as soft drinks, biscuits, sweets, chocolate and cakes.
